Everything You Need to Host an Epic BBQ

A punny apron is optional, but these are the things that are essential

First and foremost: food. No one is happy when they’re hungry so make sure you have enough for everyone. Suggest a “bring-a-plate” system and share it on the group chat so you don’t double-up on snacks and condiments.

Bevvies and a bucket of ice. As obvious as it seems, drinks and ice are easy to forget when you’re busy worrying about what meat (or non-meat) to barbecue, so keep this on your list as high priority together with a bottle opener and drinking vessels.

Shop the look

Grilling equipment i.e. an actual grill of sorts, and depending on what type – gas or charcoal, oil, foil, tongs, a flipper if needed…

Table setting supplies. If you’re grilling away from home, choose environmentally friendly options over single-use plastic plates, cups and utensils.
